Client type
Owner of a semi-commercial property
Mortgage objective
Semi-commercial remortgage with capital raising
Primary challenge
Mixed-use security narrows the lender field, and capital raising changes the affordability assessment.
Key lesson
Semi-commercial cases need lenders that value the commercial element and assess the whole property, not just the residential part.
